Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson told ComingSoon.net that director Peter Segal has spoken with him about playing Captain Marvel in the upcoming comic-book movie Shazam!

"Yeah, he did," Johnson told the site. "Listen, John August is writing the script, and he's a tremendous writer, and I'll just wait for the script to come in. But I'd love to work with Pete again and certainly would want to work with John August. So there's a strong possibility."

Would Johnson put on Marvel's signature yellow-and-red tights? "Well, knowing Pete, he'd update it and make it fresh," Johnson said. "But that's his question. He's very excited about the project and talks about it passionately. Pete also understands the importance of getting that right; he's a big comic-book fan."

The comic-book series focuses on Billy Batson, a teenager who becomes the superhero known as Captain Marvel when he utters the magic word "Shazam!" The name is an acronym for six gods and heroes of the ancient world, as well as their attributes: the wisdom of Solomon, the strength of Hercules, the stamina of Aries, the power of Zeus, the courage of Achilles and the speed of Mercury.

Raph's Girl note: "Shazam!!" *gives the people's eyebrow*

I think that could be pretty awesome, especially if Superman is given the Rock Bottom at some point.

I demand atleast The People's Elbow.

That would be the Shazam! elbow now, jabroni. If you smell what Billy Batson's cooking.

Does that mean Mary Marvel is going to be played by Trish Stratus (as a brunette)? :)

Dwayne!!!!!!!!

You don't know how I would mark for that.
